BETTER THAN A CLOAKING DEVICE
If you've ever watched the television show Star Trek, you'll remember the spaceships equipped with a cloaking device that made them untrackable. The ships became invisible on radar screens and thus could maneuver in the midst of the enemy without detection. Naturally, the cloaking device, a high form of technology not possessed by all intergalactic inhabitants, was greatly desired.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have such a cloaking mechanism—something that would protect us and allow for safe passage through dangerous territory and hostile environments?
Though such devices, today at least, are right out of science fiction, anyone who has had proof of Christian Science healing can recognize the power of another kind of "cloaking"—based on divine law. There's plenty about this in the Bible. We're told, for example, of three people who were cloaked in such spiritual conviction that they were safe in the midst of a flaming inferno. And of another person who was thrown in with hungry lions and came out unharmed.
